AFTER THE STORM

After The Storm ☔️

As the rain falls heavily, and the mighty wind continues to blow

I feel there has never been a better description

Of pain; my pain

Of sorrow, my sorrow

The waters seem to have been pent-up for ages

Just as my tears have been

And now, they are releasing

Like a mighty flood, they do flow

The thunders and lightenings that seem never-ending

Make me wonder, how long shall this be for?

Will the pain ever go away?

Will the sun ever shine again?

I glance about, just looking at the havoc it has wreaked

Till I catch a whiff of the fragrance of the waters hitting grass

It sends a new sensation down my battered heart

I notice the heavy rain washing away the debris

And the grass drinking happily away

Perhaps, this sudden storm is the breakthrough everyone needed

The breakthrough I needed

For it is said that out of the sadness of the countenance, the heart is made better

Come to think of it,

My heart does feel better

A smile replaces the frown,

Just as the sun will shine after the storm

And I lift up my hands to JESUS

And bless HIS Name forever more
